Sinossi

In "Watch and Clock Escapements," the author delves into the intricate mechanics of timekeeping devices, unraveling the complexities of escapement mechanisms that lie at the heart of horological craftsmanship. With a meticulous attention to detail, the text showcases a convergence of engineering precision and artistic flair, providing both historical context and technical analysis. The narrative is enriched by rich illustrations and diagrams, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike, while its structured approach caters to both novice and seasoned horologists, reflecting the evolving nature of mechanical timepieces through the ages. Written by an anonymous authority in the field, the book likely emerges from a tradition of meticulous craftsmanship, possibly influenced by the author's own experiences in watchmaking or repair. The choice to remain anonymous speaks volumes about the communal nature of horological knowledge, where the art and science are often shared amongst craftsmen. This narrative anonymity allows readers to focus on the content rather than the creator, fostering a collective appreciation for the enduring legacy of clock and watch engineering. For anyone intrigued by the art of timekeeping, "Watch and Clock Escapements" is an essential addition to their library. This text not only educates but also inspires a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in the creation of timepieces, making it a must-read for horologists, engineers, and history enthusiasts alike.

    Most would not expect a book about a stroke to be entertaining, but this memoir will force you to laugh through a tragedy, then cry, then laugh again.Avrel Seale was fifty, did not smoke or drink, had low blood pressure, and had hiked more than two hundred miles the year a stroke nearly ended his life. In an instant, he was teleported into the body of an old man—unbalanced, shaky, spastic, and half-paralyzed. Overnight, he was plunged into a world of brain surgeons, nurses, insurance case managers, and an abundance of therapists.Seale leads us through the harrowing day of his stroke and emergency brain surgery with minute-by-minute intensity. We then follow him through ICU, a rehab hospital, and a neuro-recovery group-living center, where we meet a memorable cast of other stroke survivors and also those recovering from auto accidents and gunshots. Finally home, Seale leads us through a new life of firsts, including returning to work, to driving, to playing guitar, to camping, and even to writing a book—all with one hand.What emerges from his humor (“elegant but devastating”) is a revealing critique of the hospital experience, the insurance industry, and rehab culture. And his nothing-off-the-table quest for recovery shows both the sobering struggles and inspiring possibilities of life after a stroke in twenty-first century America.
